Understanding R's Package Search Path for Better Code Maintenance and Function Discovery
R Package Search Path R uses a search path to find packages and functions. When you call library() without specifying a package, R looks for the package in the following order: The current working directory (the directory from which you are running your script) The directories in the PATH environment variable The R libraries directory (/usr/lib/R/site-packages on Linux and /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current/share/R/site-library on macOS) Finding Functions with fget() or Directly Using Parens To find a function, you can use the fget() function from the pryr package, which overlooks everything that is not a function.
